Description
This one captured my imagination from the beginning of the idea...I collect antique and vintage toys, primarily tin, but some of the Fisher Price toys are fascinating! I imagined a shy young man, still having his "Barky" pull toy as a best buddy, conflicted about leaving his childhood things behind him! I found a cutting board (rounded edges not shown here) at a second hand store, gessoed it, and started painting! Wired for hanging, of course~!
